interface BMFontChar wrong texture type defined

[mcofko]

This Issue is about (pick one, ✏️ delete others)

• A bug in the API:
  • Phaser version(s): 2.11.0
  • Live example: creating custom Phaser.BMFontChar

fontData.chars[5000] = {
x: f.x,
y: f.y,
width: f.width,
height: f.height,
xOffset: 1,
yOffset: charA.yOffset + Math.floor((charA.height - f.height) / 2),
xAdvance: f.width + 2,
kerning: [],
texture: new PIXI.Texture(font.base, new PIXI.Rectangle(f.x, f.y, f.width, f.height))
};

• What should happen: it should accept PIXI.Texture type for texture property
• What happens instead: it throws error, because its defined PIXI.BaseTexture type

Changing texture type property in BMFontChar interface from PIXI.BaseTexture to PIXI.Texture solves the issue.

So the TypeScript definition is wrong?

[mcofko]

I would guess so. But I did not make a thorough test. I'm not sure if changing the type breaks anything else.

Did you get an error in the browser? What's the error message?

[mcofko]

I got this error:

• Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'hasLoaded' of undefined
  at new PIXI.Sprite (phaser.js:16530)
  at Phaser.BitmapText.updateText (phaser.js:63037)
  at new Phaser.BitmapText (phaser.js:62732)
  ....
  Phaser wants to access hasLoaded property from this.texture.baseTexture, but because system is already working with BaseTexture format it of cource does not fin the property
